Anybody with sprint iPhone 5s A1453 can check if this info is correct?

"Purchasing an unlocked iPhone means you will not qualify for the lower iPhone price associated with a contract. The unlocked iPhone 5c model is A1456. The unlocked iPhone 5s model is A1453"

Wow if thats the case, then it is better than Verizon's unlock iPhone 5s. And different from last years which sold GSM based version. iPhone 5 best was for verizon. iPhone 5s best from Apple! NICE FIND!

Verifying with customer support for the new unlocked version - sim free with apple chat. will post in a little.

LOL!!!! <snort><chuckle><sputter> hahahahahahahahaha!!!!! :D

Sprint. Unlocked. For. Full. Price.

Excuse me while I go roll on the floor and laugh please!!!!

No, sorry!

Pay full price for a Sprint iPhone and all you're buying is a contract free iPhone locked to Sprint.

Be a customer for 90 days with no late payments and you can call Sprint up and have them unlock that iPhone of yours for INTERNATIONAL USE OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ONLY!

Never, under ANY circumstance will Sprint unlock your iPhone for domestic carrier use. Apple does not sell any Sprint iPhones that are unlocked for domestic use.

Your SIM will be PAIRED with the iPhone and your iPhone will not work on any other network domestically.

Sorry, that's the way it is.

If however, you are trying to buy an unlocked iPhone and bring it TO Sprint (almost unheard of) then you'll probably have to deal with Apple to get it activated. Sprint's policy is never to activate non-Sprint phones. Only Apple can force Sprint to activate them.
